Peter Thiel's venture firm countersued by 'Wonder Years' actress

The legal battle between an ex-child actress and billionaire Peter Thiel has entered a new chapter.

Crystal McKellar, who appeared on “The Wonder Years” and worked at Thiel’s Mithril Capital  has been accused of trying to ruin the reputation of the venture fund co-founder.

McKellar has now filed a countersuit alleging that Mithril’s managing director, Ajay Royan, lied about the fees he was charging, the size of his team and the value of his investments, according to the New York Post.

McKellar claims that Thiel was concerned about Mithril reducing the size of its investment team.

The Post published a statement issued by Mithril calling McKellar’s lawsuit “a thinly veiled attempt to divert attention from her own wrongdoing.” The company said its “success and performance speaks for itself.”
